Heads up
  • Teammate Davante Adams (a top target) is on IR, so Whittington may see more targets.

A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.

How Jordan Whittington should do vs the GiantsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Giants, plus a projection for this game.

What is this table?

Rows at the top are every game Jordan Whittington has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.

Compare against picks which group of Giants opponents to line them up with: the best WR they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Jordan Whittington will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.

Giants avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Jordan Whittington's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Jordan Whittington usually produces.

Projected is Jordan Whittington's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Giants were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.

Prediction & chance to scoreJordan Whittington vs the Giants

Prediction for Jordan Whittington

Nobody knows which slot Jordan Whittington will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Giants.

If Jordan Whittington plays as
2.6
projected PPR points

I predict about 2.6 points for Jordan Whittington if playing as a WR3. Jordan Whittington has averaged 1.8 over 1 game, and the Giants have given up 4.2 to WR3s (-5% vs the league average of 4.4).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Jordan Whittington scored: Wk 1 1.8. Average 1.8; weighted toward recent games it is 2.6.

2. The defense. Over 1 game, the Giants allowed 4.2 points to their opponent's WR3. The league average for that slot is 4.4, so that is -5%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 1 defensive game, only 25% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -1% adjustment (x0.99).

4. Result. 2.6 x 0.99 = 2.6. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.

It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.

Chance to score

Type a point total to see how likely Jordan Whittington is to reach it as a WR3.

32%
chance of 3+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (2.6) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 1.5 points, leaning on Jordan Whittington's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical WR swings before that).

Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 3.

With only 1 game of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.

InsightsPlain-English takeaways from the table
  • WR3s have averaged 2.0 receptions, 22.0 receiving yards and 0.0 receiving TDs against the Giants across 1 game.
  • The Giants allow 4.2 PPR points to WR3s, -5% versus the league average of 4.4 (ranked 17 of 32, where 1 is most generous). That is a near-average matchup.
  • WR3s scored a touchdown in 0 of 1 games (0%).
  • Small sample: only 1 game so far. Treat these numbers as directional, not settled.
